Lyrics:
[Verse 1] Dusty clock in the window ticking softly Paper birds hung faded on the string Mother calls me in for tea so kindly I watch her in the garden, humming, tending green [Pre-Chorus] Mismatched plates and borrowed time Sun slants through the pane Careful heart and crooked rhyme Dreams drift like a train [Chorus] Oh, the painted moon hangs golden in the morning Quiet shoes are shuffling down the lane Crickets sing in smoky summer yawnin' Another day will never come this way again [Post-Chorus] La la la, oh la la la La la la, oh la la la [Verse 2] Buttons missing on my jacket, sky is crying Neighbors gossip softly through the fence Every stone remembers all the lying Children trading pennies for some sense [Pre-Chorus] Light caught between the leaves And the sweet breeze cannot stay Settle words you can't believe Let your secrets fly away [Chorus] Oh, the painted moon hangs golden in the morning Quiet shoes are shuffling down the lane Crickets sing in smoky summer yawnin' Another day will never come this way again [Post-Chorus] La la la, oh la la la La la la, oh la la la [Bridge] Old dog sleeping on the porch remembers thunder Silver frames of faces in the hall Pockets lined with brittle leaves and wonder Photographs and laughter, gentle, small [Verse 3] Letter half-composed sits on the table Words drift slow like dust across the floor Promises are thin and half as stable But the light in autumn lingers at the door [Chorus] Oh, the painted moon hangs golden in the morning Quiet shoes are shuffling down the lane Crickets sing in smoky summer yawnin' Another day will never come this way again [Post-Chorus] La la la, oh la la la La la la, oh la la la
